Szechuan Sauce

  • Author: Chef Mia

Description

This Szechuan sauce is a flavorful sweet and savory recipe with just the right amount of spice. I make it in 15 minutes using soy sauce, fresh ginger, and chili garlic sauce. It works perfectly as a dip, marinade, or sauce for rice, noodles, and stir-fried meals.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Asian chili garlic sauce (or chili sauce)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth (veggie broth for vegetarian)
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Combine broth and cornstarch in a small bowl; stir until dissolved
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, add all ingredients except broth and cornstarch mix and bring to a light boil.
  3. Stir the cornstarch mixture until it thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.
